Fun concept, the game need a little polish here and there but the potential is clearly there to make a good platformer/puzzle game

How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
The PUMP-46 units look like and multiply like viruses, and the common enemies are balloons.

Interesting concept, i can sense a good potential with the mechanics, i find the integration of the theme interesting as a virus multiply himself, good job!
Very interesting game! I'm impressed with how you handled the limited color and still created a readable game. Besides some physics/camera jank, it was a pretty fun platformer that used a unique mechanic that plays well into the theme/special object of this jam.
Interesting platformer mechanic. Outside of the jank with the camera, its some cool chaos and it was pretty funny near the end where I decided to sacrifice tons of little guys in the hopes one of them could push through. Seems like you want to keep working on this game, and yeah I think there's something cool here! Great work!
It's a pretty ordinary platformer with fun mechanics, but a little boring. I think if we somehow develop this parasitism mechanic for a larger number of creatures with different effects, then I think it can become a very good game.
Want to see more !!! Love the cloning mechanism :D For the screen dezoom having a bit of space around the viruses that are far from the center would be neat. Also the black characters and dark grey background is not a good match to me, you don’t see them very well :O And a bit of music/sfx would be great !!! But I love controlling an army of viruses, I’m a fan :D
This is a really unique idea for a game like this, but the cloning mechanic doesn't seem to be that important. Also, it might just be me, but there's no audio. Still, I personally see potential.


For a rough draft, it’s a bit early to say if it’s really good, but I can definitely see the appeal of a puzzle platformer using a balloon.
